Watching the bus driver handwrite his routes and stats for the day and seeing him being picky about his pens. He has really nice handwriting. Maybe I'll sketch him later.

Wow, this 3,400 year-old ancient Egyptian paint box still contains original pigments!

Looks similar to a modern-day set!

An inscription tells us it belonged to Amenemope, Vizier during the reign of Amenhotep II.

Part of the fun on this platform. In my case, at least. Refreshing.
I'll show Sue Sakamoto this time as I was talking about Cave Story with a friend yesterday.

Finally have a proper plastic storage for my dip nibs. A bit giddy about restarting drawing with inks again.

Thrifted an old tray with handles and a leather pouch today at the nice Japan-Korea surplus today. I now have a pouch for all my annotation supplies and have a tray to eat out of when I am reading on my computer chair.

Silence. All use is unethical. It’s trained on stolen works and ruining the environment.
